In desperation, Kent had no choice but to collapse to the ground with a thud, bowing to Alexander in a plea for mercy.
“Mister Kane, spare my life! | know | was wrong! Your lordship, forgivethis time!” he wailed, kneeling and bowing three times then repeating the gesture nine more times.
“| was confused for a moment, unaware of your identity. |... | still don’t know who you are, but | know | truly messed up this time. | really messed up!”
He was not lying this time.
Not just him. Even Tobias beside him, and Waldo, who followed anxiously behind, knew Alexander was terrifying. However, they had no clue that the calm—looking young man before them was not just suseless son-in-law but the globally renowned Lord of the Temple of War.
“Mister Kane...”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtObserving Alexander’s indifferent gaze, Tobias‘ face alternated between pale and green. It was as if he suddenly recalled something and took a step forward.
He mercilessly seized Waldo by the throat, lifting him off the ground. He turned to Alexander with a face full of shame. “Mister Kane, this man Waldo deceived Kent with deceitful words. He’s nothing more than a scum!
“Waldo must've instigated Kent. This scum deserves no sympathy!” With these words, without giving Waldo a chance to defend himself, Tobias tightened his grip with his right hand.
Crack!
Waldo, infamous in Sunhaven, had his neck snapped by Tobias. His lifeless body fell to the ground, eyes bulging, meeting a sudden demise.
Behind Alexander, George snorted disdainfully. His gaze was full of contempt as he coldly remarked, “How cold -blooded you are to protect Kent, Mister Sacco! Do you know that the recent framing incident at the New Chesire Medical Aesthetics Experience Center in the city...”
He recounted the framing incident at the experience center grimly.
“Scum... You damn scum!” Tobias, consumed by anger, stared fiercely at the kneeling Kent, his voice almost hoarse. “Zachary Gander, Hannah Cox... Were they all arranged by you? Blast it all...”
At this point, raging with anger, he shouted toward the grand mansion behind him. “Someone, bring forth the family law!”
From within the gates of the Sacco family residence, a gray-robed steward swiftly emerged, hands trembling as he held a thorny vine cane, offering it to Tobias with hesitation. “Mister Sacco, Mister Kent is frail and hasn't practiced martial arts. If family law is enforced...”
Tobias took the cane from the steward’s hand and mercilessly whipped Kent, his old face contorted in a fierce grimace. “I'll whip you to death, you beast! You've truly disgraced the Sacco family to have indulged in all

“Distorting the truth, maliciously framing others, provoking Mister Kane... You won’t have enough lives for the trouble you've caused!”
Kent was whipped so severely that he was almost beaten to death, bloodstains covering his body as he rolled on the ground, crying and cursing. Yet, in his mind, he was crystal clear.
Tobias was not trying to kill him. Instead, he was trying to save him. As long as it could appease Alexander, even enduring severe beatings was worthwhile.
“Mister Kane!” At this moment, Kent sobbed and rushed to Alexander, bowing recklessly, his voice hoarse. “I beg for your mercy; spare this wretched life of mine! | was blind before, offended you and Miss Chesire... | bow to you now, | truly repent!”

“Kent.” Alexander lowered his gaze, looking at the pathetic Kent, and said, “I’ve said before: In business competition, one must be upright. | welcfair competition, but if there’s mischief behind my back, you will pay the price. “It seems my previous warnings didn’t resonate with you.”
The words were calm, devoid of any hint of malice, yet Kent could not help but shiver violently, as if his soul had left his body, feeling death closer than ever.
“Life is precious. If you sincerely repent, | may spare you this once.” Alexander turned away, facing the ground where Kent knelt, his voice calm as a still pond. “Many customers are being deceived and causing a disturbance at the beauty experience center as we speak. Tell me, what will you do?”
Kent stiffened as if grabbing onto the last straw of life. He raised his head abruptly, shouting repeatedly at Tobias.
“Grandpa, prepare the helicopter right now. I'll go to the beauty experience center and clarify the facts to those consumers! All the mistakes are mine! As long as Mister Kane is appeased, I’m willing to do anything!”
The cane in Tobias‘ hand slowly dropped.
Turning to Alexander, Tobias bowed his aged body 90 degrees, tears flowing freely. “Mister Kane, did you hear? Kent has truly repented this time. |... I’m begging you!”
Alexander slowly exhaled. He walked toward a nearby red Porsche without looking back.
“I'll be waiting at the entrance of the beauty experience center.”
